Dead­line: 31st of Jan­u­ary 2025

Details:

We are very excit­ed to announce the open­ing of our call for papers for the first ever ECSM! We are accept­ing indi­vid­ual paper sub­mis­sions, com­plete pan­els formed from 3 papers, round­table sub­mis­sions and con­tri­bu­tions to our «Mak­ing and Doing» session.
Abstracts are due on Jan­u­ary 31st, 2025 at 11:59pm CET. For the full call for papers or to sub­mit an abstract, please go to the conference
web­site. We wel­come abstracts for indi­vid­ual papers and con­tri­bu­tions to pan­els in some way relat­ed to our over­ar­ch­ing theme: Prac­tice. The­o­ry. Action. 

The ECSM will be an are­na for health pro­fes­sion­als with dual train­ing in the social sci­ences or human­i­ties whose work engages one or all of these three modes: prac­tice, the­o­ry, and action. Social sci­ence or human­i­ties schol­ars who see them­selves in the work of social med­i­cine are also wel­come. We seek to ground our con­fer­ence in the shared pur­pose of build­ing healthy futures and invite con­tri­bu­tions that approach prac­tice, the­o­ry, and action with curios­i­ty. In com­ing togeth­er, we hope to cre­ate a com­mu­ni­ty of schol­ars who strive to address the inter­con­nect­ed chal­lenges that our col­lec­tive health and health sys­tems face as well as sug­gest solu­tions and ini­tia­tives by call­ing upon meth­ods from the health pro­fes­sions, social sci­ences, and the humanities. 

We invite sub­mis­sions on any top­ic at the cross-sec­tion of the health pro­fes­sions and social sci­ence and the human­i­ties, and wel­come a range of dis­ci­pli­nary approach­es, time peri­ods and geo­graph­i­cal con­texts. We par­tic­u­lar­ly encour­age pro­pos­als that address aspects of the con­fer­ence theme – prac­tice, the­o­ry, and action – in the work of con­tem­po­rary social med­i­cine. Abstracts are wel­come from all fields in the health pro­fes­sions, social sci­ences, and human­i­ties, includ­ing inter- and trans-dis­ci­pli­nary projects. 

If you have any ques­tions, please con­tact us at ecsm-contact@helsam.uio.no.
We can­not wait to see you in Oslo in June 2025!
